It is called 'Common Core' and the idea behind it is reasonable.

States working together to create national standards for education.

Standards that are 'designed to be robust and relevant to the real world'.

Sounds good, so why is there growing opposition in Ohio and around the country to Common Core?

Ben has the Reality Check you won't see anywhere else.

As to the OP:
Interesting. I can see this going very wrong, if what Glenn is saying is so, and I have no reason at this time to say otherwise.
Glenn seemed to giving a preview of perhaps an episode on "food" soon, from his blackboard drawing. Monsanto, maybe?
